re-visiting In-between projects, having just finished when I looked at the sky it was wool, I’ve yet to embark on something new. What a great place to be… like picking out a new pair of shoes. The feedback I’ve received […]
Having collected a fair bit of material for the basis of this project it takes a while to sort out what will finally work in an exhibition space. My thought process around it all is extended with the time it […]
Went to New Art Gallery Walsall a few weeks ago. (I did blog about it) and saw everything, twice, but didn’t watch Zarina Bhimji’s Yellow Patch. I had a bit of a headache and didn’t want to sit in the […]
I am currently in that horrible limbo time, the time when procrastination strikes heavily, between projects – the time when it is so easy to phaff the days away in indecision – what is it exactly that I am going […]
Making the piece ready for viewing by half a million visitors will mean that much of my work between now & Easter will be in readiness for the Buckfast Abbey showing. So, another tranquil day working outside again, & probably […]

The Brook of Plenty The snow has been and gone and when it had gone I looked in the Brook of Plenty. There was not much water in there, it comes out from the near by woodland, across the fields, […]

Some of the most exciting installations these days come out of South America. Having just returned form Aruba, off the Venezuelan coast, I was impressed by this huge float, winner of their 2011 Carnival. The theme for the carnival was […]
Today I am exhausted. My son finally recovered from chickenpox, only to develop conjunctivitis and to top it off last week was half term. I had to go to work through all this as well, and with a horrible nasty […]
